This is a response to the article yesterday on the progress of GNOME and KDE. Aaron Seigo, a lead KDE developer, sets out the current state of progress with KDE 4, pointing out that KDE 4 is on track for a release in mid 2007. "Thom points to a quote from me that our goal is to have a 4.0 ready sometime in the first half of next year. That gives us until sometime in June and I'm still thinking we can make it."

in my opinion in the last year both kde and gnome have both advanced twice as much as they have in the three years prior. kde is really making strides and i can't wait for kde4. I am have never been a fan of gnome but even gnome is becoming usable to me which is amazing as i have always disliked gnome in the past. Kde is still my desktop of choice and kde4 is an exciting prospect, i am waiting and i hope it is everything the devs are working for it to be.
